Off The Record, June 17th

There's a lot more to this Record. You'll have to follow the link to see how many confirmed and nonconfirmed nominations for government positions. It might open some eyes. There is plenty more in both bills/laws/resolutions and the nominations/confirmations. I just did a summary to give an idea. See link for full details but it breaks down each arm of the service, too.

From Facebook Occupy Wall Street: "SAVE THE DATE: November 17th. This will be big. VERY BiG. On November 17th, we call on all allies and supporters across the nation to put a stop to business as usual and reclaim this country for the 99%. Details to come....." Sounds interesting. Will it be a day for all the worker bees in the country/world to call in sick or something, like a master strike? I think I'm in. ...

My friend is getting married in June, and I wasn't expecting to get invited and then this weekend she surprised me by saying I was invited....So now i've got no idea what to wear for the wedding. The weddings I've attended have always been in the early spring (as in late winter) or in winter.... Any ideas? TIA ...

Supposedly this kid was part of the smuggling ring-humans and drugs. WTH!!!! It's a shame the kids are being dressed to take over these criminal activities. It's an international incident but it doesn't matter that the American citizens are being assaulted, shot and killed by illegals and drug dealers. Where were the Mexican border guards to stop them from trying to enter the U.S.????? Mexico anger high as US Border Patrol kills teen CIUDAD JUAREZ, Mexico – Mexicans are se ...

Scottie is claiming he is clean as a whistle, but is quietly assembling his legal defense funds just the same and lawyering up behind the John Doe investigation. He's using funds from his campaign donors to cover his legal expenses while denying any wrongdoing. He says he's not under investigataion, but state laws governing the authorization of legal defense funds suggest Scottie is fibbing about that. Former Walker aids have been charged with multiple count ...

There was a thread awhile back about a new pipeline route being approved by Obama, and the poster warned that it was just to appease the pipeline supporters and he would eventually find a way to delay. Seems she was definitely right about that. http://www.reuters.com/article/2013/01/31/usa-keystone-delay-idUSL1N0AZOO620130131 ...

I believe the NY Times should be brought up on charges for this. if not the whole newspaper, at least the reporter who got the information. You can't use the First Amendment to endanger an American citizen, no matter what. It's almost treasonous to do it. Who do they think they are? Time to get tough with the media. Guess where they had gotten some money (at least in 2011)...3 guesses and the first 2 don't count. The New York Times Just Outed The CIA’s Top Iran Spy JUNE&nb ...

Berlin Wall. Begun after Lenin's Bolshevik Revolution in 1917, the Soviet Union existed from 1922 to 1991. With its motto "Workers of the World, Unite!" the Soviet tactic was to train agitators, community organizers, labor organizers, and agent provocateurs-provoking agents. These would organize people with grievances and stir up riots to subvert and "tear down" the existing government. When social chaos caused major domestic disruptions, the public would then willingly accept a new o ...

Hi I am thinking about becoming a MT but unfortunatly I do have a criminal record. I had gotten into some trouble back in 2008 so now I have a misdemenor assault. It has been hard finding a job, mostly working directly with people but if I do become a MT I would want to work from home to be with my son. Also I was thinking of going though Penn Foster. Will I be able to find a job with the assault? What do you think about Penn Foster?? Thanks! ...

Nope, that's racism During his explanation, Alday said he comes "from a town where all the blacks are getting food stamps and what I call 'welfare crazy checks.' They don't work." Alday also told the newspaper about a time he visited an emergency room. “I liked to died. I laid in there for hours because they (black people) were in there being treated for gunshots," Alday was quoted as saying. "I am definitely not a racist, at all," Alday told Mississippi New ...

Okay, here is my problem. I have been trying to find a copy of a death record/death certificate/obituary online. We have a friend that we have known for over 20 years who we lost contact with about 8 years ago or so. He actually lived with us for over 6 months at one point. He eventually moved back to the area where his family is from and we lost touch. He was one of those friends that you can not see for a long time and then when you do see them again, you pick up ...

Published on Oct 20, 2012 by BlackAndRight Despite the fact the Department of Health and Human Services says there are NO Planned Parenthood clinics in the United States licensed to offer mammograms, President Obama and his surrogates continue to claim a defunding of Planned Parenthood will deny women of services they don't offer. ...

I might be the only one, but this leaves a bad taste in my mouth. The amount of money spent campaigning in this country is ridiculous. And for what? Do those ads even do anything? Do they change peoples' minds? I don't think they do. All they ever seem to me is a childish tit-for-tat that makes us all look stupid. It just feels like both sides are trying to create the ultimate Hollywood film, and whoever's movie is better wins the prize. I'm aw ...

Also, did you guys see the pictures of Beijing? Whether or not you believe global warming is man-made, this cannot go on. "Researchers from Nasa said it was the ninth warmest year while experts from another American agency said it was the tenth. Both teams said that temperatures would have been higher if it hadn't been for the the La Nina weather pattern that brought cooling to some regions. The scientists were equally certain that carbon dioxide was the principal drive ...

MARTINSVILLE, Ohio — With food stamp use at record highs and climbing every month, a program once scorned as a failed welfare scheme now helps feed one in eight Americans and one in four children. It has grown so rapidly in places so diverse that it is becoming nearly as ordinary as the groceries it buys. More than 36 million people use inconspicuous plastic cards for staples like milk, bread and cheese, swiping them at counters in blighted cities and in suburbs pocked with foreclosure si ...

Of all of the various government healthcare schemes that are or have been in existence, there is only one that has not blown through its estimated costs by at least a factor of 10. The Medicare prescription drug program is the only scheme that has come in at or below estimated costs. It is also the only scheme that is based on private competitive market forces. Capiche? ...

i.e. not politicized back-pedaling. In 2003, Sanders was among 32 co-sponsors of the Prison Rape Elimination Act, a measure to “establish a zero-tolerance standard” for sexual violence in prison. (The measure passed unanimously, but enforcement has been weak in the last decade.) In 2011, Sanders co-sponsored a measure to address the rape kit backlog. Here’s how Sen. Dianne Feinstein, another of the bill’s co-sponsors, explained the measure: ”Thousands of rape kits sit untested in ...
